Default wide lip zr1 question

Ok don't flame me, i have been searching on here for 2 days, and haven't found what i'm looking for. I saw a local LT1 camaro the other day, that had 17x11 zr1's on the back with black spokes, and a WIDE polished lip. Just like the lt1 in this pic (sorry its so huge), but with black spokes and i think a polished lip. I have had no luck finding these anywhere. I know Tomz sells some wide lip zr1's that look pretty good, but these seemed to have a wider lip. Any one got some pics, or know any place to find these? They might not be a sponsor, but any help is appreciated! Thanks a lot.

Yeah like those just with black spokes. I might end up having to pick up silver ones and getting the spokes painted.

Shouldn't be too hard to find. Tomzwheels should have them. I'm not sure if they have an official name, but they're NOT the Grand Sport offset. That's the one with deep lugs.

They have a wide lip, just not polished all the way up to the spoke.

Those are nice, but they still don't have the completely polished lip i want. I saw tomz had some wide lip zr1's,
but i didn't think those were the widest lip you could get. Could be wrong though.
I saw the new deep dished y2k's on ebay that were pretty sweet too, i just think i want to keep a 17" all around.

50mm offset comes in 3 different ways. Sunken lugnut area(pretty rare to find now, but I used to own a set), with the big lip, and with no big lip/normal lugnut area.
